Subject: Upper Chesapeake Bay, Maryland
Submitted by Reel Bass Adventures
Date Fished: 9/16/2005
Water Temperature: 78
Water Clarity: 2-3 feet Capt. Karl Bunch reports, Versatility is the key right now! All of the many rivers & creeks on the Upper Bay from Middle River up to the Susquehanna Flats are producing some quality fish. The topwater bite stops early once the sun gets up, but after the sun gets up fish the grass edges where they drop into deeper water & if you can find wood on these grass edges you should find some nice quality/sized bass. I am using a variety of spinnerbaits depending on the depth of water at the edge of the grass. I am also fishing jigs at the edges of the grass again the depth of the water at the edge of the grass will determine what size jig to use; I am using a custom made “Little”D’s Finesse Jig. Also my Tidal River Drop Shot has been a very valuable technique the last couple of weeks as it has put numbers as well as good quality fish in the boat. Remember versatility is the key as the temperatures start to drop and hopefully we will get some more rain, the fish will slowly be moving into their fall pattern.
